Claims Edit Guidelines (CEG) are intended to supplement certain standard WellCare benefit plans and aid in administering benefits. Federal and state law, contract language, etc. take precedence over the CEG (e.g., Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services [CMS] National Coverage Determinations [NCDs], Local Coverage Determinations [LCDs] or other published documents). Please see the CEG disclaimer for additional details.
Clinical Coverage Guidelines
The Clinical Coverage Guidelines (CCG) are evidence-based documents detailing the medical necessity of given procedures or technologies. The guidelines set consistent criteria for the coverage of a procedure or technology, leading to greater consistency and efficiency in clinical decision making. This consistency and efficiency results in better provider/company interactions and increases the quality of our members' health.
